It appears that the FSA-affiliatedHarakat Hazm has disbanded and that it’s fighters will be integrated into the Levant Front.

The disbandment comes after the most recent fighting between Hazm and Jabhat al-Nusra, which saw 30 JaN and 50 Hazm fighters killed.

JaN and Hazm have clashed off an on in Aleppo and Idlib since November, when JaN attacked them during it’s fighting against the Syrian Revolutionaries Front, another FSA-affiliated group.

The recent fighting started after JaN accused Hazm of kidnapping and executing a field commander and 2 of his companions, as well as attacking JaN supply routes. Hazm levied similar complaints against JaN.

Attempts by the Islamic Front to mediate and calls from numerous groups (including Hazm) to take the dispute to an independent sharia court failed when JaN attacked several Hazm bases in Aleppo over the weekend.
